EGR kit fitted
De-cat fitted
adjusted smoke screw a bit
cleaned out the inlet manifold

pictures can do the talking from here I think

More pics to follow when i've had another play!

Defiantly!!! After a day on the ranges gas parts out and straight into the 'army issued' Rola Cola that you got with your haverbag (lunch bag) and it would strip the carbon on while you cleaned the rest of the weapon and job done!!

I dont think I,ve ever seen a more clear indicator of how bad EGR must be for a cars intake system.

Disco is VERY clean aswell.

Did you take it off before sticking a toilet brush in it i would be worried about shoving loose **** down the actual intake

any pics of the inlet manifold when clean.

I was surprised at the state of it. Is this just for EGR equipped vehicles or would my 200 have a similar issue?

I will get some pics up once I have done a complete clean on it, gonna have a look at the intercooler also as the pipe from it was filthy also.

not sure on the 200 engine - this is my first landy!

few bits done (with pics) Filth!
